PROPHYLACTIC REDUCTION AND REMEDIATION OF SCHIZOPHRENIC IMPAIRMENTS THROUGH INTERACTIVE BEHAVIORAL TRAINING

Computer-implemented perceptual and cognitive training techniques for remediating schizophrenia, either prophylactically prior to the onset of clinically observable schizophrenic behaviors or after the development of schizophrenia symptoms in a person. The computer-implemented behavioral exercises are designed to be sufficiently intensive, both in the number of repetitions and in the attentional focus related to task difficulty, such that permanent changes in neurotransmitter expression are achieved.
